Panic of netbsd-8

[John Klos <john%ziaspace.com@localhost>]

I just picked up a Sun Fire v245, installed netbsd-8 from NetBSD-daily, 
downloaded pkgsrc and started compiling. I left it running overnight and 
in the morning, this was on the console:


Mar  7 05:34:59 sparky su: john to root on /dev/pts/0

So I compiled a kernel with DIAGNOSTIC, then rebooted. Then booting stops here:

brgphy3: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, 1000baseT, 1000baseT-FDX, auto
ppb10 at pci10 dev 8 function 0: ServerWorks HT1000 PCI/PCI-X Bridge (rev. 0xb4)
pci11 at ppb10 bus 13
mpt0 at pci11 dev 1 function 0: Symbios Logic SAS1064 (rev. 0x02)
mpt0: interrupting at ivec 1f8f

SIR

ERROR: Software Initiated Reset has occurred.

WARNING: sync callback did not work.
Probing system devices


Then I saw all of the messages on this list under "NetBSD-8.xx fails to 
boot on ultra 45", so I compiled a kernel with SSIZE set to 4. Now I can 
boot.

Is it likely that my panic was due to the stack size? Is the needed stack 
proportional to the amount of memory in a system? Mine has 16 gigs.

Thanks,
John
